Tuesday - hardly worth posting really but....
Started off at the
House on the Hill at Blakeney and the public footpath opposite, nothing of note apart from a kestrel and a few blue tits, great tits. Although I did notice a
good number of house martins flying low, west.
Cley Church - went to visit RAR's gravestone, which I do so occasionally and had a lovely surprise of a nest of 3 Swallows in the church porch being fed still by parents - they were so big, they were virtually falling out of the nest! As I sat photographing them, a group of people arrived who had come to visit the church - several people were very interested in watching them and one particular lady was more interested in them than going in the church! She sat outside chatting to me instead and was fascinated by the swallows.
Walsey Hills - nothing of note apart from a rat
blue tit, great tit and hedge sparrow.
Kelling Water Meadows/Quags - spent a long time here, understandably
but no sign of anything really apart from a great spotted woodpecker which errupted from behind a small row of trees behind hedge not far along the path on left hand side, a chaffinch or two, teal, meadow pipits.
Dauke's Hide, NWT - finished off the day sitting with E.M. watching a good number of gulls roosting, great black backed, lesser bb, black headed and tons of wigeon etc. Couple of marsh harriers floating about. Several house martins and swallows flickering through the skies along with a Sparrowhawk for company!
It was so dead generally, not even bothering to go out today - jobs at home, unless of course the pager bleeps up with a MEGA!!!
